Can anyone tell me how to replace the alternator belt on my mothers Rover
100, I have had a look under the bonnet but it seems to me that I have to get under the car to undo the alternator's fasterning.All I can see from the top is the pivot point of the alernator. I would be greatful if someone can give some advice please. DaveIts a real bitch to get to, I've just done one myself.
These cars were not designed to be worked on, in fact, they were designed to prevent people working on them. We had to take the alternator out from underneath, not sure about the belt.
I think it would be in the interest of the country if those responsible for the design were hunted down and shot.
Preferably in public.
Show me a modern car that is 'designed to work on'. If it's not impossible access or special tools then it's just over-the-top electronic complexity needing a supercomputer just to tell you a bulb has blown............. :-)
